The people of the city of Cardiff don’t back the team. Uniquely there is no other team near us and this should be the easiest fan base to engage with.

Instead our support is drawn from further afield where people have to endure TFW, coaches or driving to the game. If we can attract support from further afield why not on our own doorstep?

My point on Derby is that no success and the football club being ran by clowns doesn’t mean poor crowds. Visa versa Bournemouth have had a decade of unprecedented success and can’t fill a tiny stadium.

Should the only football club in a city of 360k with support across south Wales sustain higher attendances? Absolutely
Derby is a football town, Bournemouth isn’t, if they and Brentford went back to league 1 or two no one would notice or think they are a big fish. I reckon it would take 5-10 years of continuous PL status for us to change the way people think in the city. The parents never went so doubt their kids will…..
